The migration process requires that you add new migration plugins to the existing ClearQuest Eclipse client. These new plugins add an RQM Export function to the client. The RQM Export function starts an Export wizard in which you select the test assets to be migrated and the destination of that migration.
With this migration, data flows in XML fragments via HTTP from the ClearQuest client to the Rational Quality Manager server, as shown in the following figure:
The following Rational ClearQuest Test Manager asset types can be migrated to Quality Manager:
Rational ClearQuest Test Manager asset | Quality Manager asset |
